the people that helped him get elected president twice. those are the people that he is trying to now transform from a re-election campaign to a grassroots army to help him pressure congress, build public support to support his agenda. and it's support that you can, believe me, he is going to need, because right now, the president faces an uphill battle on every single one of those top priorities. if he's going to get any of that passed, he needs to pressure members of congress who, right now, including some in his own party, simply are not inclined to support him. so, the president is going to mobilize, he's never running for re-election again, but he's going to be counting on the very people that got him in the white house in the first place to get out there and support him again, pressure members of congress to support that agenda. diane? >> thank you, jon. >>> and as we know, this is also the second time for michelle obama, who has been such a force in american life. obtaining jobs for military families. thousands and thousands of them

for example, senator elect elizabeth warren. is that an individual who you think embodies where the democratic party needs to be moving? >> no, i do not. i think the democratic party is still pretty much the cult of the personalities that are involved. i think elizabeth warren won in the state of massachusetts simply because she was a better personality, a better candidate, anded issues in that state were issues that were totally marketable around her candidacy. on the other hand, in other states they were not equally as marketable. in the state of ohio, for an example, it was clear that the incredible number of racial minorities who turned out did so for barack obama. they didn't do so just for the democratic party. so i still think the democratic party at the moment has to rely upon the incredible personality of the individual candidacies before they can even get to the part of where they talk about a party agenda. >> john nichols, an interesting development today. the administration has announced that its transitioning its ca

the president has released the new official portrait showing the newly re-elected president sporting a broad smile in the oval office, which we note is the same room where all the problems of the nation wind up. not that much smiling goes on in the course of an average day in that room in the life of an american president. >>> some former presidents are in the news. starting with 43 and 41. both bushes say they will be unable to attend the inauguration. george w. bush 43 says he can't attend due to his father's health and his recent long hospitalization. and president clinton has gone public about something people have noticed about him for some time. a tremor in his hands. it was particularly evident during our last interview with him this past summer. he says in an interview he grew quite concerned about it, but was so greatly relieved when he learned it's age-related and not parkinson's that he doesn't worry about it all that much anymore. >>> when we come back, one woman's home-grown idea.
